Ray Blaney and Mrs. Bob Barker oI the Kleinfeldt Group Inc London were present at the regular, council meeting on Monday evening, • December 20 and outlined the engineers report on the state of the Bayfield Arena. Mr. Blaney recommended that it be closed or repaired. He estimated the Oa of repair at $57,000 which would include truss repair, un - and miscellaneous costs. He found that the Community Centre was "in very good shape". Council made no decision - .on the arena as they felt it required a great deal of in- depth study on their part and on the -part of the Community Centre Board. - --Mr. Bob Barker, on the other hand, brought council good news in the form of three contracts for the Bayfield Library, one of which was accepted. Wallis Bros. Contracting of London were awarded the contract to construct a new Library and move and place the existing Library as an archives room at a contract price of $38.387. This was the lowest tender received. The contract shows a tentative completion date of May 31, 1977. Ray Bell approached council with the request that the road to .the north east of his property, lot 262, be closed and that he be allowed to purchase the same in order to construct a building to house three separate business. establishments. Council passed a resolution to start the first phase of his proposal. In a report from the Ausable-Bayfield Con- servation Authority, it was learned that the Village's representative, Councillor F. E. MacFadden had a perfect attendance at the Authority's meetiags in 1976, In other business, Council decided to hire The London Humane Society again at a contract price of $400 less than 1976 and to request that they pick up every dog running loose and impound the animal in London. Perhaps if several owners have to travel to London for their dogs and also pay im- pounding casts, they will be less likely to let them run Christmas Pat, Wynn, Barbara, Nancy & John wish all their friends and customers a very Merry Christmas, peace and'happiness throughout the new year.
